In Patancheru, Andhra Pradesh, it is reported that world’s highest pharma chemical levels are found in water sources. The levels of antibiotics are in the so-called treated water is so high that patients can be treated by gulping down the water. Many have become immune to the antibiotics, which is very dangerous from the considerations of treatment of actual diseases. The People must be undergoing slow poisoning. This also serves as eye-opener, and other water sources close to industrial areas need to be monitored to ensure water quality.
The incident is so serious that the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) intervened and asked for the detailed report. One is shocked at the level of pollution in the water samples and the inaction of the concerned regulators, environment monitoring agencies and NGOs for so long! It seems to be true that everything can be hushed up in India provided one is prepared to bribe the “right” persons in cash or in kind. Satyam’s multi-million rupees fraud is a good example.
